It was a rainy Sunday afternoon. We drove around one city and dug another. I had this privy probed and test holed out a few months ago but just got to it. I forgot my camera and it was raining most of the time anyway, so it didn't matter. We dug through a 1940's-50's fill layer on top and then ash and cinders mixed with 1930's stuff. We hit a 2-4 foot cap below that. When we broke through the cap we found three of the woodlined walls. down we went through nice black dirt finding early crown tops and a couple of blob beers. We hit another layer change and a shallow cap at about 7 feet. The earlier bottles and relics were laying on the bottom 6" of privy. A few nice marbles and a few decent bottles, it was a good day. Here are the photos with bottle names or descriptions below.
